The blend runs 80% tempranillo, 15% mazuelo, and 5% graciano, fermented in large upright wooden tinas and aged in American oak casks, the traditional Rioja method Bodegas Riojanas has never moved away from. At 12% alcohol it comes from an era when Rioja was picked for freshness and built to last decades rather than the first 5 years. The 46 years before release were the bodega's decision, not the market's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt displays a pale brick color with a wide orange rim, opening with aromas of dried fig, tobacco leaf, cedar, and old leather. On the palate, the light-bodied frame has shed nearly all its primary fruit, leaving dried cherry, walnut skin, and a sweet-savory note in its place. Tannins have resolved completely into a fine, silky texture, and the magnum has kept the whole thing moving slower than a 750 would have. Acidity is still firm and holds the wine together. It finishes long and gentle, more savory than fruited, fading slowly rather than dropping off.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bodegas Riojanas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50526776033520,"sku":null,"price":615.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/3678\/4368\/files\/Bodegas-Riojanas-Vina-Albina-Gran-Reserva-red-magnum-1975.jpg?v=1790205517","url":"https:\/\/www.lessismorewines.com\/products\/bodegas-riojanas-vina-albina-gran-reserva-1975-magnum","provider":"LESS IS MORE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
